We are pleased to announce the appointment of Anton van Straaten to the
Scheme Language Editors Committee. Anton's service began on 26-27 May
2005, when he attended a meeting of the Editors Committee.

As we reviewed the 21 names that were suggested by the current editors
and by the community, Anton's name came up over and over again. As both
a commercial user of Scheme and a developer of programming language
tools, Anton balances an understanding of the requirements of Scheme
users with a thorough practical and theoretical understanding of
programming language design. We are certain that he will be an asset to
the Editors Committee.
